Can't make the Lime Rock event; work is very busy and my cars are
roadworthy; mostly, but not trackworthy....
have fun at the event!  Nate may have a used MAF for me to try.

	Just drove home a new to me 1993, pearl with black interior,
with a 
	number of issues. 
	Fixed the "loose rack"; got the sunroof to close; currently
drying out 
	the interior.  The paint clearcoat issues remain...  Need to
inspect the 
	timing belt as there are few records with the car...then replace
the 
	front outer CV boot. 
	
	Part way home the fuel mileage suddenly plummetted, and the car
ran very 
	rich with the check engine light.  On decel (fuel cut) check
engine 
	light goes out.  At first intermittent; soon became major power
loss and 
	10mpg.  I'm sure the plugs are pretty fouled.  Managed to limp
all the 
	way home. 
	
	I borrowed Vag-com and got some codes, but don't have info on
them 
	handy.  Listed below. 
	
	Several leaks; looks like at the pump (o-rings); plus I get an
oil leak 
	and smoke at the plenum on the passenger's side. 
	
	No A/C; will have to add a charge to find the leak(s).
